Bluetooth partnerships
A Bluetooth partnership is a relationship that you create between your
device and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to exchange
information in a secure manner. Creating a partnership between two
devices involves entering the same personal identification number
(PIN) on both devices. Creating a partnership between two devices is
a one-time process. Once a partnership is created, the devices can
recognize the partnership and exchange information without entering a
PIN again. Make sure the two devices are within a range of 10 meters
from one another, and Bluetooth is turned on and in discoverable
mode.
To create a Bluetooth partnership
1. On your device, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab >
Bluetooth.
2. On the Devices tab, tap New Partnership.
Your device searches for other Bluetooth devices and displays
them in the box.
